"Yes. We are getting closer. And I am so thankful that we are doing this together and experiencing it together."

"We were made for moments like this. It's our only purpose. To be there for others." Joy places her hand on Woesme's shoulder. "Like He is always there for us. Ever faithful. Now, let's keep going. We're getting closer to Him!"

Prayer:

Lord, you came to earth for us. And we sing, joy to the world, the Lord has come. You died and rose again, for us. And we sing, Your grace amazes me, Your love is a mystery, and there is no way to repay You. We can only offer You our joyous praise. Lord Jesus, keep me abiding in you so that your joy may be in me and that my joy may be full. Cause my heart to rejoice, and my joy, let no one take from me. LORD, you are my strength and my song. You are my exceeding joy! Make me to rejoice in you always. Lord Jesus, you want your joy to be fulfilled in me! Show me how you can make it happen! Lead me into it. In Your Precious Name! Amen.
